Chapter 272: Participate in the auction
"Regarding the auction in Dragon City, you have to prepare to go!" Qin Heluo said.
"Didn't you say it was postponed last time?" asked Li Qingming.
Originally, I was supposed to go to Dragon City to participate in the auction a week ago. But Qin Heqin called and said that the auction was postponed due to some uncontrollable reasons. Say yes and wait for the notice. There has been no news on this.
I didn't think about it, but now there is news.
"It is said that last time there was a new discovery, so we were going to put this new discovery up for auction this time, so the auction date was postponed. And this time, the specifications have also been raised. A minimum net worth of 1 billion is required to be eligible to participate in this auction!" Qin Heluo said.
Net worth 1 billion! Li Qingming silently calculated his bank account, this, well, there is no fraction.
Although it is said that the copyright fee is recorded in the account again, it adds up to less than 20 million funds. It takes 1 billion people to enter, and it is estimated to be the lowest. There are inevitably billions, tens of billions, or even tens of billions of dollars. Or hundreds of billions. With this little money, he is really not a scumbag.
"Rest assured, I have $20 billion to participate in the auction this time. So, if you fancy something, you should be able to take it!" Qin Heluo said.
The quota of 20 billion is naturally from the quota of the Heluo Consortium. But it's more than enough to buy a potted plant. Of course, for Qin Heluo, her participation in such an auction, the quota of 20 billion is naturally not mainly used to help Li Qingming buy potted plants. Instead, they bought some technology that would be beneficial to the Helo consortium.
Today, although the federation is a whole, it also adopts a system of separation of powers. Each city-state has its own judicial power. It is nothing more than bound by the entire Federal Parliament. But cities have autonomy. The main source of funding for the city comes from the consortium.
In this regard, the two are mutually reinforcing.
"When are you leaving?" asked Li Qingming.
At 8 p.m. the day after tomorrow, the auction will start on time at the Art Convention and Exhibition Center in Dragon City. Then you will come with me!" Qin Heluo said.
Li Qingming nodded.
As for this, Li Qingming immediately said to Zhang Lao.
"It's an interesting auction, you can check it out. By the way, if you see any bonsai, buy them for me. There is nothing here except trees, it is farmland, it is lonely, it is not beautiful at all!" Zhang Lao looked at the vegetable fields around him, with a dissatisfied face.
Zhang Lao is naturally fond of planting flowers, and there is nothing here, which is something that makes him extremely dissatisfied. As for the family, why didn't Mr. Zhang take it. This is a person's private property, no matter how much Zhang Lao likes it here, and why he is willing to pay for it, he can't let people decorate the school with his own things.
Although it is said that plants can be cultivated, in this respect, it is different from other collectibles. However, the cultivation of plants is also affected by the climate, environment and soil, and it is not absolutely possible to cultivate it in any place. What's more, since it is a collection, natural objects are rare and expensive. Rare, to be able to please yourself.
If you have to ask someone to take it from your own family, it can only be said that you are too shameless. You are a moral kidnapping. It also belongs to standing and talking without back pain. If you want to take it, why don't you take it from your own family.
Even if you take what you have in your own house, there is no reason, because you are morally noble, you have to kidnap others and let others take them out. In this world, there is no such reason. If that's the case, everyone is for all, and I am for everyone. I'm afraid that human society has long been sublimated.
This is the age of utopia! Only utopia can be. Of course, it was also the fabled era of GCISM. But is that possible? Even Marx and Enks didn't think it would happen.
Because, after all, it is illusory. Unless it is not carried by life, that is possible. As long as it is a society created by life, there will be no era in which everyone is for one and I am for all.
"Well, definitely, definitely!" Li Qingming nodded.
"Alright, you guys go. By the way, Dragon City is very interesting and can be played for a few more days. The city is steeped in history. You go, you should be able to notice the difference!" Zhang Lao patted Li Qingming on the shoulder and left with a smile.
"Is there any difference in Dragon City?" asked Li Qingming curiously.
"I haven't been there either!" Qin Heluo shrugged.
Seeing Li Qingming's suspicious face, Qin Heluo had no choice but to explain.
"I can't go to every one of the 500 federal cities. Although Dragon City is also one of the top 10 super cities, about the top 10 super cities, I have been to the City of Angels, Mountain City, as well as Fog City, and Apple City. I haven't been to the rest of the megacities!" Qin Heluo explained.
Today's climate is already harsh, and although the federal transportation is enough to overcome such a harsh climate, there is no need, and no one will run around. After all, those who are rich are not so idle, and those who are idle may not be so rich. What's more, the dream of traveling around the cities of the Federation originally belonged to a very small number of people. Most people, there is no such ideal.
A megacity is big enough, so big that you may not be able to go to every area in your lifetime. Not to mention other megacities.
"Then it seems that you will only know when you go!" Li Qingming said with a smile.
Although there are videos of various aspects nowadays, you can't know about a city just from the video. Whether it is an official promotional video or a netizen's video, they are just some of the famous local attractions, if you want to see the whole picture of a city, or really understand a city, you must go by yourself.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Qingming and Qin Heluo got on the UFO again and flew straight to Dragon City.
The distance from Longcheng to Shancheng is a little farther away, and in the north, it is now close to November, all the way north, and it is obvious that the climate is getting colder and colder.
"Now that the Federation has suffered a catastrophe, the world's environment has been seriously damaged, and our human science and technology cannot repair nature at all, and human science and technology are still too small in front of nature!" Qin Heluo sighed, "It's too difficult to get out of here!"
Li Qingming looked at the tornadoes that appeared from time to time in the sky outside the window, as well as the hail and freezing rain flying all over the sky, and was terrified. It wasn't so bad to go to the mountain city before, and I never thought that this way to the north would be so bad, but the environment and climate were so bad.
"It's strange, isn't it? Because it's a mountain castle over there, and the mountain castle is the best protected, even during the cataclysm. So the landform is also the most primitive. Elsewhere, it's different. Be careful, flying in the air, there are a lot of strong air currents, be careful of bumps!" Qin Heluo advised.
